United States Third Circuit

Summary judgment for defendants in a civil rights action, involving undercover law enforcement officers' mistakenly identifying plaintiff's son as a fugitive, is reversed in part as to plaintiffs' section 1983 claims against certain defendants and a Bivens claim, where the district court erred in failing to consider the facts in the light most favorable to plaintiffs in its constitutional rights analysis.
